The cflags are assumed to be the include path to rfb.h. Probably you did
not use a current LibVNCServer, or you have an old libvncserver-config in
your path.

Beware! RFB support is not yet for the faint-hearted! ATM if you don't
have the keymaps/ directory in your current working path, you don't get
support from RFB.

Yes, yes, I know. keymaps should be taken from qemu's default path, the
mouse should be calibrated automatically, and all the rest. If somebody
wants to see about that, well, go ahead. ATM I unfortunately don't have
time to spare.
